Abstract
The migration crisis has raised a number of issues across Europe that significantly threaten the rule of law. The crisis has reminded EU Member States that the external borders of countries most affected by the influx of migrants reflect a serious problem at the core of the EU. In fact, the failure to respect external border procedures is the first sign of a dysfunctional asylum system. The problems began with the non-application and non-respect of the principle of solidarity, safeguarding the human rights of migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers, and their protection against victimization or involvement in serious crimes. These problems do not only affect EU Member States, but also third, mainly transit countries. Even if the EU has made great efforts in combating irregular migration through financial assistance and the operational support of Frontex, these efforts have not been effective. On the contrary, irregular migration and migrant smuggling increased in 2020. In particular, the Republic of North Macedonia has faced many challenges in managing the migration burden, especially from a financial and operational point of view. This chapter will therefore analyze cooperation between the EU and the Republic of North Macedonia in cases of human trafficking and smuggling of migrants, and more generally, the criminalization of solidarity in the EU, toxic narratives and hate speech against migrants, the new measures for asylum seekers and migrants, and the impact on third countries.
